lyrics
1) heaven's forge (3:18)
(instrumental)
2) hymnal (4:13)
(instrumental)
3) earthen fire (6:55)
Open
to the sun
open
to earthen fire.
Always
go beyond
toward
that earthen fire.
Birthing
I become
born
in earthen fire.
Loving
you alone
succumb
to earthen fire.
Passion
siren song
haunting
like earthen fire.
Holy
my song
erupts
in earthen fire.
Sleeping
on the wing
burning
like earthen fire.
Malkuth
I embrace
mudsong
of earthen fire.
Walking
drawn along
skipping
past earthen fire.
Swallow
I consume
the sun
like earthen fire.
4) dreams away (5:10)
(Who dreams away?)
Set forth;
unknown.
Set back
alone.
Numb fingers,
tree branches.
Branch crackles,
entrances.
(Who dreams away?)
Numb fingers,
the bone.
No shelter.
No home.
Alone,
I follow.
I sleep
tomorrow.
(Who dreams away?)
Find fire,
the landscape.
My heartbeat,
my dreamscape.
Your promise,
my love?
I'll find you
like sun.
(Who dreams away?)
5) raise your anchor (5:04)
(instrumental)
6) consumed by roots (4:52)
i tore my roots out
so i could see me
i spilled potted soil
all over the ground
so i could see me.
i picked at my scabs
like crusted tree bark
i tore my skin off
so i could breathe free
so i could see me.
i tore my clothes off
so you could see me
i stood there, there naked
and you believed me
and you believed me.
i tore my roots up
so i could see me
i made a home there
in the space you gave me
in the space that you gave me.
i sang out so loud
that the gods could here me
i made my home there
in the trunk of a banyan tree
i dropped my roots out
to the ground before me
i tore my roots out
so i could see me.
i'm like a palm tree
you tore your roots out
and you grew all over me
and you grew all over me.
7) lucid (5:06)
ceiling white ceiling white
tanglewrapped sheets and skin
growing tight tight tight
turning over where do i begin?
semi-conscious dazed awake
hallucinogen
spotted intensity
thrown back into a daydream
grasping at straws
straws of lucidity
drawing breath drawing breath
last movement through oblivion
falling deft deft deft
undercurrent obsidian
bronzeblood smell sickened thick
rustorange torrent trickles out
rush onward out of the haze
floating over mind storms doubt
bloodorange bathed sunset
half slept moaned awakening
steeping day into night
broken dawned hastening
draining forever out
pseudo-stormsong fluid
into a torrent of shadows
restless dreams begin again
gauze wrapped sterility
seamless abrupt reality
plunge back toward the ocean
wading plasma river
breathe beyond pain
and back into oblivion
